The car needs to be tuned on a dyno to really get the max potential. A street tune is always an option, but not as good. Unfortunatly, there are no base maps to work from. Every motor will be different and, in turn, require different fuel maps.

Default hmmm

Well it depends on what work the D16 has done to it.

If it's stock don't change it. If you have a CAI don't change it. basically no point in changing the fuel map unless you change the camshaft, go boost, or supercharger or increase compression or something major.
